Albion ready to double target’s wages

West Brom are prepared to double Jeffrey Schlupp’s wages in order to convince him to leave Leicester City.

Albion have seen a £9million bid rejected by the Foxes but are understood to be preparing an improved offer.

The 23-year-old signed a new deal with Leicester last summer and is under contract until 2019 but the Baggies are willing to double his current wages in a bid to convince him to swap the King Power Stadium for the Hawthorns, according to reports.

Foxes boss Claudio Ranieri is keen to keep hold of Schlupp and it remains to be seen as to whether the champions can be convinced to sell but it seems as if West Brom are not ready to give up on the versatile Ghanaian just yet.
